Abstract

Aim - to estimate the influence of intermittent pneumatic compression on arterial bed. Material and methods. The paper presents a literature review concerning the use of pneumatic compression in patients with peripheral artery disease. Results. Possibilities of pneumatic compression for prophylaxis and treatment of chronic ischemia in patients with peripheral artery disease are under discussion. Conclusion. The rapid growth of investigators’ interest in nonmedical methods of influence on arterial bed, and also the search for new and efficient methods and regimens highlight the significance of medical pneumatic compression. Currently, there is limited literature available about customization of pneumatic compression in accordance with nosology and individual indicators of blood circulation in lower extremities. As mentioned above, the most relevant and perspective direction is investigation of complex key indicators of arterial biomechanics with possibilities of the regimen correction, i.e. with implementation of feedback mechanism.

Summary

Introduction

INFLUENCE OF INTERMITTENT PNEUMATIC COMPRESSION ON ARTERIAL BED Проведен обзор литературных данных по использованию метода пневматической компрессии у пациентов с заболеваниями артерий нижних конечностей. Проводится обсуждение возможностей пневматической компрессии в лечении и профилактике хронической ишемии нижних конечностей. Все больший рост интереса исследователей к немедикаментозным методам воздействия на сосудистое русло, поиск новых эффективных методов и режимов свидетельствуют о практической значимости и востребованности лечебной пневмокомпрессии.
